Thank you, Prince Bernhard Nature Fund!

We are delighted to report that the Prince Bernhard Nature Fund (PBNF) has once again chosen to support CERCOPAN’s important work in Nigeria. In 2011, a grant from PBNF enabled the organisation to buy a new Hilux 4-Wheel Drive truck to facilitate our intense conservation operations at Rhoko. The new grant, will again contribute towards our long-term, large-scale Rhoko conservation programme, providing the resources we need to ensure forest protection in readiness, and as a catalyst, for REDD+ . This multi-donor project includes a range of activities including forest patrol, alternative livelihoods projects, environmental education, capacity building of local Community Based Organisations (CBO’s), tree planting of degraded areas and strengthening of community conservation rules.
